Ish Sodhi joined Rajasthan Royals as their spin consultant alongside operations executive for the upcoming IPL season. The Royals welcomed their ex-player in the new role for the league.

Sodhi in a new role

The New Zealand legspinner will be working closely with the spin bowling coach of Rajasthan Royals, Sairaj Bahatule and Chief Operating Officer Jake Lush McCrum. He represented his country in 40 T20Is and was a part of the Royals franchise in 2018 and 2019. He took nine wickets for the Rajasthan based team over two seasons. The Royals have Mayank Markand as the prime legspinner, alongside spin bowling all-rounders like Shreyas Gopal, Aniruddha Joshi, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Mahipal Lomror in the squad.

Gopal sounded excited while speaking on the same and said, “Ish has actually already been a great mentor to me and really helps my preparation for matches. He is such a good guy to have in the camp, so I’m delighted he is coming back.”

Who says what

Sodhi said that it would be an exciting and challenging role. He also added that he took decision of joining the franchise instantly without giving a second thought. “I am delighted to be taking on this new challenge at Rajasthan Royals with this dual role. Having played for two seasons for the Royals, I have formed a great level of understanding with all the people involved with the franchise, and they have always been very supportive of me. Therefore, I did not have to think twice when this opportunity was offered to me by the Royals’ management. I love this franchise and want to help us win the IPL this year.”

Likewise, the Head of Royals Cricket Zubin Bharucha welcomed him and said, “We are very happy to welcome back Ish to the Royals family in his new role. The induction of Ish in this dual role demonstrates the Royals’ commitment to recognise and reward young talent to develop into masters in their field of work. I congratulate Ish on his new stint and wish every cricket fan across the globe gets behind the team when Rajasthan Royals kicks off its new season this summer.”
